Unitary Method

The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.

Speed, Time, and Distance

Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 …

Profit and Loss

The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.

Units and Measurements

Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experime…

R denotes the field of real numbers, Q denotes the field of rationals, and Fp denotes the field of p elements given by integers modulo p. You may refer to general results from lectures. Question 1 For each non-negative integer m, let R[x]m denote the vector space consisting of the polynomials in x with coefficients in R and of degree ≤ m. x²+2, V3 = 5. Prove that (V1, V2, V3) is a linearly independent (a) Let vi = x, V2 = list in R[x] 3. (b) Let V1, V2, V3 be as defined in (a). Find a vector v € R[×]3 such that (V1, V2, V3, V4) is a basis of R[x] 3. [8] [6] (c) Prove that the map ƒ from R[x] 2 to R[x]3 given by f(p(x)) = xp(x) — xp(0) is a linear map. [6] (d) Write down the matrix for the map ƒ defined in (c) with respect to the basis (2,2x + 1, x²) of R[x] 2 and the basis (1, x, x², x³) of R[x] 3. [5]

Question 4 (a) The following matrices represent linear maps on R² with respect to an orthonormal basis: = [1/√5 2/√5 [2/√5 -1/√5] " [1/√5 2/√5] A = B = [2/√5 1/√5] 1 C = D = = = [ 1/3/5 2/35] 1/√5 2/√5 -2/√5 1/√5' For each of the matrices A, B, C, D, state whether it represents a self-adjoint linear map, an orthogonal linear map, both, or neither. (b) For the quadratic form q(x, y, z) = y² + 2xy +2yz over R, write down a linear change of variables to u, v, w such that q in these terms is in canonical form for Sylvester's Law of Inertia.
